Reflective Learning - Maintaining Strong Barriers

In this course, we will learn the importance of keeping our barriers strong and understanding when some of these barriers may be weakening. We will watch a video that will go through two very different scenarios with very similar outcomes and then analyse this video to see what could have been done better.

The aim of this course is not to just watch a video, it is to think and discuss the incident that we observe. We want the learner to reflect on the causes of the incidents involved in the video. We want them to relate to what has happened (or could happen) in similar situations on board their ship and what they could do differently in the future.

In this course, the learner has an opportunity to understand how to prevent a similar incident from happening to them in the future.
